Description

TECHNICAL FIELD

[0001] The present application relates to the field of power systems, in particular to a cogeneration unit start-stop plan making method and system. BACKGROUND

[0002] At present, the installed capacity of new energy is the largest in the world. However, due to factors such as power supply structure, resource distribution and power grid structure, the problem of new energy consumption is becoming more and more prominent year by year. Wind power has the characteristics of randomness, volatility and intermittency, and the wind power consumption is directly affected by the regulation capacity of conventional power sources. When the fluctuation range of wind power output exceeds the regulation capacity of the power grid, wind power will be abandoned. In some areas, the proportion of thermal power units, especially cogeneration units, is high. In winter, the city heat supply network mainly supplies heat through large-scale thermal power units. In the "heat determines electricity" operation mode, the peak shaving capacity of cogeneration units is significantly reduced. In order to ensure the active balance of heat supply and power grid during the low load period, a large amount of wind power is abandoned, which seriously affects the acceptance of wind power. In the traditional power unit combination, in order to fully ensure the heating of residents, the cogeneration unit needs to strictly formulate the start-stop plan and the minimum operation output of the cogeneration unit according to the regulations. The result of this cogeneration unit start-stop plan making method is generally conservative, which will lead to excessive start-up units and minimum operation output during the winter heating period, reducing the wind power consumption space and being not conducive to the improvement of wind power utilization rate.

[0051] For a better understanding of the present application, the details of the application will be further described with the accompanying drawings and examples.

[0052] Example 1

[0053] The present application aims to overcome the shortcomings of the prior art and proposes a method for developing a start-stop plan of a cogeneration unit for thermal-electric combined scheduling as shown in Figure 2

[0054] The method first evaluates the maximum heat supply load within the heat supply range of the thermal power plant according to the heat load prediction data for the next week, and then determines the start-stop plan of the cogeneration unit that meets the heat supply demand based on the heat supply capacity of the cogeneration unit. The present application determines the minimum number of running units of the cogeneration unit by using the prediction of the maximum heat supply demand of the thermal power plant, which is a new mode of unit combination for improving the wind power consumption capacity, meets the actual thermal-electric combined scheduling demand, and further improves the space for wind power consumption under the premise of guaranteeing the heat supply demand.

[0055] As shown in Figure 1 , the specific steps are as follows:

[0056] Step one: when there is wind curtailment: calculate the maximum heat supply of the cogeneration unit based on the power supply power condition of the cogeneration unit;

[0057] Step two: determine the heat supply capacity provided by the cogeneration unit based on the maximum heat supply;

[0058] Step three: determine the start-stop plan of the cogeneration unit based on the heat supply capacity provided and the obtained heat load prediction curve.

[0059] The method considers the heat load prediction for the next week and develops the start mode of the cogeneration unit under the premise of guaranteeing the heat supply demand, thereby improving the utilization rate of wind power.

[0060] Among them, step one: when there is wind curtailment: calculate the maximum heat supply of the cogeneration unit based on the power supply power condition of the cogeneration unit, including:

[0061] Step 1-1: based on the start plan of the conventional generator unit for the next week, including various types of generator units such as thermal power, hydropower, nuclear power, etc., the minimum technical output of each unit is accumulated hour by hour to obtain the day-ahead minimum technical output curve of the whole network.

[0062] Step 1-2: according to the load prediction and the transaction plan of the outgoing liaison line for the next week, the total network generation load for the next week is accumulated, and the difference between the generation load and the minimum technical output is the wind power consumption space. ​

[0063] Step 1-3: Compare the wind power prediction in the next week with the wind power accommodation space, and identify the wind power prediction exceeding the wind power accommodation space as wind curtailment.

[0064] Step 1-4: Determine whether there is wind curtailment in the next week, if there is wind curtailment in the next week, execute step 1-5, if there is no wind curtailment, do not develop thermal-electric combined dispatch unit commitment, and the process ends.

[0065] Step 1-5: According to the thermal load prediction system, the thermal load prediction in the next week is evaluated, and the thermal load prediction curve H L,t in the next week is evaluated.

[0066] Step 1-6: According to the operation characteristics of the cogeneration unit of the thermal power plant, the maximum heat supply capacity of each cogeneration unit is calculated.

[0067] Cogeneration units mainly include back pressure type and extraction type, and their operation models are mainly as follows:

[0068] P b,e =c m P b,h +K b (1)

[0069] max{P c,e,min -c v2 P c,h ,c m P c,h +K c}≤P c,e ≤P c,e,max -c v1 P c,h (2)

[0072] The maximum heat supply value of the back pressure combined heat and power unit is P b,h,max =(P b,e,max -K b ) / (c m );

[0073] The maximum heat supply value of the extraction combined heat and power unit is P c,h,max =(P c,e,max -K c ) / (c m +c v1 );

[0074] Step two: determining the heat supply provided by the combined heat and power unit based on the maximum heat supply;

[0075] Based on the heat supply safety, the heat supply power of the combined heat and power unit considers a certain safety margin η (generally 10%-30%), and the heat supply power of the combined heat and power unit meeting the certain heat supply safety margin needs to meet the following formula:

[0076]

[0077] In the formula, P 可 is the heat supply provided by the combined heat and power unit; P h,i,t is the heat supply of each combined heat and power unit at the same time according to the heat load prediction curve.

[0078] Step three: determining the start-stop plan of the combined heat and power unit based on the provided heat supply and the obtained heat load prediction curve, including:

[0079] Step 3-1: combining the maximum heat supply capacity of the combined heat and power unit and the heat supply safety margin, calculating the minimum number of running combined heat and power units meeting the heat load demand in the future week according to the following formula:

[0080]

[0081] Step 3-2: according to the running state of the combined heat and power unit of the current thermal power plant, determining whether the number of running combined heat and power units is greater than the minimum number of running units, if the number of running combined heat and power units is greater than the minimum number of running units, giving the suggestion of the number of stopped units; if the number of running combined heat and power units is less than the minimum number of running units, giving the suggestion of starting; if the number of running combined heat and power units is equal to the minimum number of running units, keeping the original unit operation plan unchanged;

[0082] Step 3-3: Based on the start-stop machine suggestion of the cogeneration unit of the thermal power plant, it is judged whether the maximum / minimum output of the thermal power unit after the start / stop of the cogeneration unit meets the load demand. If yes, the start-stop machine plan of the thermal power plant is executed. If no, the adjustment suggestion of the start-stop machine plan of the thermal power plant is given.

[0083] Step 3-4: Based on the result of step 3-3, the start-stop machine plan of the cogeneration unit of the thermal power plant is made and is sent to the thermal power plant for execution.
